Q3 2024 Financial Highlights
(as compared to Q3 2023)

AUA1,2 and Revenue

  • Ending AUA1,2 increased to $39.0 billion, up 12% or $4.3 billion, primarily driven by strong equity markets and recruiting
  • Total revenue increased 5% to $91.9 million, led by a 7% increase in fee revenue

Profitability and Cash Flow

  • Net loss from continuing operations was $2.3 million compared to $0.2 million
  • Adjusted EBITDA1 of $12.5 million down $4.4 million, as revenue growth was offset by higher adjusted operating expenses
  • Cash from operating activities was $16.0 million, down 4%
  • Free cash flow available for growth1 declined 44% to $6.2 million
  • Free cash flow1 was down by $2.3 million to $3.9 million, primarily due to higher advisor recruiting payments

Balance sheet

  • Net working capital1 was $94.9 million, effectively unchanged

TORONTO, Nov. 7, 2024 /CNW/ - RF Capital Group Inc. (RF Capital or the Company) (TSX: RCG) today reported revenue of $91.9 million in the third quarter of 2024, up 5% as compared to the prior year. The increase in revenue was driven by 12% growth in AUA,1,2 as strong equity markets and recruiting over the past 12 months offset advisor attrition. In the most recent quarter, the Company recruited three advisor teams representing $590 million of expected AUA.1,2 Adjusted EBITDA1 was down $4.4 million, as revenue growth was offset by higher adjusted operating expenses driven by costs related to our leadership transition.

For more detail on the Company's results, please refer to its MD&A and unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the period ending September 30, 2024.

AUA is a measure of client assets and is common in the wealth management industry. It represents the market value of client assets that we administer.

Dave Kelly, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "We experienced another record this quarter with our AUA1,2 reaching $39.0 billion."

Mr. Kelly continued, "As the Company's newly appointed CEO, I am confident we will continue to build on this momentum through the steadfast efforts of our dedicated advisory teams, our talented corporate team and our strong platform, leading us to become the best independent choice in Canada."

Outlook and Key Performance Drivers

Our current view on the drivers of our financial performance and profitability for the remainder of 2024 is as follows:

  • AUA1,2 is highly correlated with equity market movements but will also be supported by growth in our existing advisors' client assets and by recruiting. We expect to maintain recruiting momentum over the coming quarters
  • Interest revenue is impacted by prime rate trends, which economists expect to continue declining from current levels throughout the rest of this year
  • Transaction activity underlying our corporate finance revenue could rebound later this year but is more likely to remain subdued
  • We expect inflation to remain in the target range for the rest of the year, and we remain committed to finding operating cost savings and efficiencies in our business
  • Free cash flow available for growth1 is expected to be deployed towards advisor recruitment

Preferred Share Dividend

On November 7, 2024, the Board of Directors approved a cash dividend of $0.233313 per Series B Preferred Share for a total of $1,073, payable on December 30, 20243, to preferred shareholders of record on December 13, 2024.

8.

Calculated as revenue less advisor variable compensation. We use gross margin to measure operating profitability on the revenue that accrues to the Company after making advisor payments that are directly linked to revenue.

9.

Operating expenses include employee compensation and benefits, selling, general, and administrative expenses, and transformation costs and other provisions. Adjusted operating expenses are calculated as operating expenses less transformation costs and other provisions.

10.

In Q2 2023, we recorded a provision for a legacy employment litigation matter related to the 2019 sale of our capital markets business to Stifel Nicolaus Canada Inc. See Note 25 to the 2023 Annual Financial Statements.

Non-GAAP and Supplemental Financial Measures

In addition to GAAP prescribed measures, we use a variety of non-GAAP financial measures, non-GAAP ratios and supplemental financial measures to assess our performance. We use these non-GAAP financial measures and SFMs because we believe that they provide useful information to investors regarding our performance and results of operations. Readers are cautioned that non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP ratios, and supplemental financial measures often do not have any standardized meaning and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Non-GAAP measures are reported in addition to, and should not be considered alternatives to, measures of performance according to IFRS.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

A non-GAAP financial measure is a financial measure used to depict our historical or expected future financial performance, financial position or cash flow and, with respect to its composition, either excludes an amount that is included in, or includes an amount that is excluded from, the composition of the most directly comparable financial measure disclosed in our 2023 Annual Financial Statements. A non-GAAP ratio is a financial measure disclosed in the form of a ratio, fraction, percentage, or similar representation and that has a non-GAAP financial measure as one or more of its components.

The primary non-GAAP financial measures (including non-GAAP ratios) used in this document are:

EBITDA

The use of EBITDA is common in the wealth management industry. We believe it provides a more accurate measure of our core operating results, is a proxy for operating cash flow, and is a commonly used basis for enterprise valuation. EBITDA is used to evaluate core operating performance by adjusting net income/(loss) to exclude:

  • Interest expense, which we record primarily in connection with term debt and preferred share liability;
  • Income tax expense/(benefit);
  • Depreciation and amortization expense, which we record primarily in connection with intangible assets, leases, equipment, and leasehold improvements; and
  • Amortization in connection with investment advisor transition and loan programs. We view these loans as an effective recruiting and retention tool for advisors, the cost of which is assessed by management upfront when the loan is provided rather than over its term.

The table in the "Quarterly Non-GAAP Information" section below reconciles our reported net income/(loss) to adjusted EBITDA.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses include:

  • Employee compensation and benefits
  • Selling, general, and administrative expenses
  • Transformation costs and other provisions

These are the expense categories that factor into the EBITDA calculation discussed above.

Fee Revenue

Fee revenue represents the fees that our advisors generate for providing wealth management services and investment advice to their clients. The majority of fee revenue is fees charged to clients as a percentage of AUA. It is often referred to as recurring fee revenue because of the fact that the revenue tends to be less volatile than other types of revenue. Fee revenue also includes performance fees, which are charged by several of our advisors in the first quarter of each year based on performance in the prior calendar year and therefore experience more volatility.

Commissionable Revenue

Commissionable revenue includes fee revenue, trading commissions, commission revenue earned in connection with the placement of new issues, and revenue earned on the sale of insurance products. We use commissionable revenue to evaluate advisor compensation paid on that revenue.

Adjusted Results

In periods that we determine adjusting items have a significant impact on a user's assessment of ongoing business performance, we may present adjusted results in addition to reported results by removing these items from the reported results. Management considers the adjusting items to be outside of our core operating performance. We believe that adjusted results can enhance comparability across reporting periods and provide the reader with a better understanding of how management views core performance. Adjusted results are also intended to provide the user with results that have greater consistency and comparability to those of other issuers.

Adjusted EBITDA Margin

Adjusted EBITDA margin is a non-GAAP ratio defined as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue.

Adjusting items in this document include the following:

  • Transformation costs and other provisions: charges in connection with the ongoing transformation of our business and other matters. These charges have encompassed a range of transformation initiatives, including refining our ongoing operating model, outsourcing our carrying broker operations, realigning parts of our real estate footprint, and rolling out our new strategy across the Company.
  • Amortization of acquired intangible assets: amortization of intangible assets created on the acquisition of Richardson Wealth.

All adjusting items affect reported expenses.

Adjusted Operating Expenses

Adjusted operating expenses are defined as total reported expenses less interest, advisor award and loan amortization, depreciation and amortization, and transformation costs and other provisions.

The table in the "Quarterly Non-GAAP Information" section below reconciles our reported total expenses to adjusted operating expenses.

Adjusted Operating Expense Ratio

Adjusted operating expense ratio is a non-GAAP ratio defined as adjusted operating expenses divided by gross margin.

Adjusted Net Income

Adjusted net income is defined as net income (loss) from continuing operations less adjusting items.

The table in the "Quarterly Non-GAAP Information" section below reconciles our reported net income/(loss) to adjusted net income/(loss).

Free Cash Flow Available for Growth

Free cash flow available for growth is the cash flow that the Company generates from its continuing operations before any investments in growth or transformation initiatives. It is calculated as cash provided by (used in) operating activities per the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows before any changes in non-cash operating items, less lease payments and maintenance capital expenditures. It does not consider transformation charges, the income (loss) from discontinued operations, or dividends.

Free Cash Flow

Free cash flow is the net cash flow that the Company generates from its operations after funding its growth and transformation initiatives, including building out new offices to accommodate its growth. It is calculated as Free cash flow available for growth plus the income (loss) from discontinued operations less cash outlays to recruit new advisors to the firm, capital expenditures on growth initiatives, transformation costs, and the net change in balance sheet provisions.

The table in the "Quarterly Non-GAAP Information" section below reconciles our reported cash provided by (used in) operating activities to free cash flow for growth and free cash flow.

Supplementary Financial Measures

A supplementary financial measure (SFM) is a financial measure that is not reported in our Financial Statements, and is, or is intended to be, reported periodically to represent historical or expected future financial performance, financial position, or cash flows. The Company's key SFMs disclosed in the MD&A include AUA, recruiting pipeline, net new and recruited assets, and working capital. Management uses these measures to assess the operational performance of the Company. These measures do not have any definition prescribed under IFRS and do not meet the definition of a non-GAAP measure or non-GAAP ratio and may differ from the methods used by other companies and therefore these measures may not be comparable to other companies. The composition and explanation of a SFM is provided in the MD&A where the measure is first disclosed if the SFM's labelling is not sufficiently descriptive.
